Journal ArticleDOI

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2: clinical presentation, molecular mechanisms, and therapeutic perspectives.

TL;DR: Based on previous experience with other polyglutamine disorders and considering the molecular basis of SCA2 pathogenesis, a nuclei-acid-based strategy focused on the specific silencing of the dominant disease allele that preserves the expression of the wild-type allele is highly desirable and might prevent toxic neurodegenerative sequelae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoparticle technology for treatment of Parkinson's disease: the role of surface phenomena in reaching the brain.

TL;DR: This review provides an overview of technical aspects in the design of brain drug delivery of nanoparticles and an analysis of surface phenomena, a key aspect in the development of functional nanoparticles for Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives on gene therapy in myotonic dystrophy type 1

TL;DR: This Mini‐Review is focused on the experimental advances obtained in cell‐based and animal models toward the development of therapeutic treatments against DM1, providing a discussion of their potential application in clinical trials.
